Yeah, between the migraines, and my normal levels of Anxiety and Depression, it has been a laugh riot around the Geek Household What Rules. By “laugh riot,” I mean, I have been a complete wreck. A lot of the nerds I know have mental health issues, or mental illnesses if you prefer. And I think… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #555 – Mental Health and Being Kind to Yourself
Sorry about last week. The Migraine Fairy arrived Wednesday night and hung out through Saturday morning. Whee. I hate her. Anyway, between that and a work conference Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, this week is going to be a little chaotic and I apologize. I’ll try to make it up to you guys. And on to the… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #554 – Gravity Falls
I do not actually get this question all that often anymore, mostly because all you have to do is point at CNN, MSNBC, or any news channel, newspaper, website, blog… There’s a lot to be angry about. And not just in the wider scheme of things. The Nerdiverse is going through some pretty sizable upheavals… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #553 – Why are you so angry?
Ok, I liked Venom. I LOVED SPIDER-MAN: INTO THE SPIDERVERSE. The animation style was incredible, the voice acting superb, and the story was fantastic. This is another one I missed in the theater because of migraines, and man I wish I’d seen it on the big screen, however, I also suspect the migraine from that… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #552 – Review – Spider-Man: Into the Spiderverse
Ok, so the way I decided was that someone tugged on my heart strings by mentioning their game designing daughter, and who had a similarly weird childhood. So, newyorkgwythaint who responded on the public blog wins the bracelet. Here is an admittedly shitty picture of it. Sadly they did not have an exclamation point bead,… Read More Bracelet Giveaway
April 1st and the morning of the 2nd, we said our good-byes. I think I cried harder over the end of G+ than the last family member I lost. When I said that to the Geek Husband What Rules, he said, “Well, yeah. Your G+ friends ARE your family.” I know a lot of folks… Read More On the Death of G+
The most annoying part of the migraines is that apparently movies in theaters is everything my brain hates right now, so I’m not going to them unless I feel very strongly about them. I finally saw Venom, and I loved it! Yes, it has plot holes and brings up something that completely frosts my cookies… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #551 – Review: Venom
Ok, I don’t feel like explaining at length why the guy who wrote the BoundingIntoComics article about what Fonda Lee said is a shithead. Go read his article, you can google it, I’m not linking that asshole. Then go read Jim Hines’s takedown of it. Short version, she said about Barnes & Noble that part… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #550 – Again with a Terrible Dude, and My Petty Annoyance #453487534687
Ok, some of you may have seen on Sunday my tweet talking about how if your knee-jerk response when a woman tells you to quit talking out of your ass is to call her a facist, you’re a dipshit. Seriously. I’m not going to sugarcoat this any more. Look, I get it. Getting called on… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #549 – Dudes, stop
Hi! So, this is a day late because Tuesday night I ran a demo of Guns & Glamour, the PBTA hack I’ve been working on forever, for @ActualPlay on their twitch stream. I had never done that before. I mean, I’ve run and played games online before, over Skype or Google Hangouts. But doing it… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #548 – Guns & Glamour
